Princess Cake
Birthday cake for a friend. The pillow cake looks wet because I put the fondant on the cake while it was still a little frozen. Didn't realize you couldn't do that - I had only used fondant one other time. Eventually it dried up a little, but it prevented me from decorating the pillow like I wanted to.

1St Birthday Cake
For a 1st birthday. My first square cake - and it wasn't easy! The picture shows all my mistakes - rough corners, uneven - although it looked a lot cuter in person. Also, I made the letters a little too big, so I had to scrunch them on. Square cakes stink!!!!! :) My inspiration was from the new Confetti Cakes book - I love that book!

First Try At This - 60Th Birthday
One of my favorites on this site is Thahn Thahn - I adore her cakes! So this idea came from one of her cakes. I'm not thrilled with the way this looks, but it's not the worst, either. I have to remember - I am new at this!! This is only my 5th or 6th cake! I'm learning!! Thanks again Thahn Thahn for the inspiration!

Chocolate Birthday Cake
This is my first attempt at basketweave - I was pleased with the way it came out. It was a chocolate cake with strawberry filling and chocolate covered strawberries. I made the numbers out of royal icing and glued them to florist's wire. I also put some red sparkler candles. Only the 3rd cake I've made!
